How to customize colors in 3D Vessel View

Use this guide to change the colors in the 3D Vessel View: the container colors, the background, the wireframes and the vessel. You can color the containers by an attribute, for example Container Size or Port Of Discharge. You can also set colors that you are used to at your terminal.

Color the containers by an attribute

1. In the Function Menu on the left, open Visualization and click 3D Vessel View. The view opens in View mode.
2. At the bottom right of the screen, click the Color By dropdown (1 in the picture). Choose an attribute, for example Port Of Discharge.

The color key and the colors of the 3D model update at once.

Change the colors

1. In the top bar, click the Mode dropdown and choose Settings. The settings options show in three places, marked with orange boxes in the picture: the Mode dropdown, the toolbar below the top bar, and the panel on the right.

2. In the toolbar, click Customize Container Colors. The Customize colors window opens.
3. Click the dropdown (1 in the picture) and choose the attribute that you want to customize, for example Port Of Discharge. Each value of the attribute has its own color. The window also has color sliders and a box with the color code (for example #58e4ee).
4. Click the X (2) to close the window. The 3D view updates.

Note: a black dot in the window means that a custom color is already set.

5. To change the color of the background or of the wireframes, click Background Color or Wireframes Color in the toolbar (the orange box in the picture).

6. To change the vessel skin color and other elements, use the panel on the right. Click a section name, for example COLORS (1 in the picture). The color options show below it.
